Pros

Smart people. Problem Solving Culture. Open. Flat. Influential Company. Agile (leaning towards XP rather than Scrum). Martin Fowler is the Chief Scientist. There's opportunity to try out other offices globally after you've served a year in the company.

Cons

It can be chaotic at times. Even as a consultant from an esteemed company, clients can sometimes ignore good advice. ThoughtWorks occasionally signs work that's not good for staff.

Pros

TW really worries about best people. We have amazing co-workers it's incredible to work together with so talented people. Diversity it's another good stuff. We have the opportunity to talk and work with people of different countries and backgrounds. Also we have opportunity to travel to another countries.

Cons

The salary is bellow the medium and the leadership is ok with that. They say they do this for hire just passionate people. I couldn't disagree more.

Pros

A company full of incredible people, providing great global connections, and regular growth opportunities. You can and should make your own path within the company, and it will pay you back many times over.

Cons

Internal systems and processes are poor and unstructured. Staffing projects is unpredictable and ThoughtWorks is finding it hard to balance individual goals with project needs. ThoughtWorks will take as much of your time and energy as you are willing to give.
